In His Own Words
About him
I have been writing fiction for my entire life. I have a degree in writing for film. My passion is writing about movies and writing novels. But I also love to produce video games and collect and write for comic books in my spare time. I have a blog that is doing well - I am now transitioning to a video blog series. I am learning web programming for a job and I hope to get a novel/screenplay published soon. And I'm learning Javascript for indie game development and open-source software development - and I produce micro-budget video projects, tabletop games, comic books, animation and digital products. I'm a mecha design artist. I also volunteer as a tutor of literacy and creative writing. I have alot of experience on film crews and very much enjoy this work also.
I have finished a novel and am working on my second. I write novels and screenplays. I also write movies that me and my friends make and the same with graphic novels and I write game narratives and design documentation which I usually aim to code myself and do the art. I'm also learning to improve my drawing and design drawing skills. And I'm getting into production design and video editing.
For a job I plan on being a part time tutor and part time web designer - while I develop my writing, filmmaking and game producing career. I'm trying to start four businesses.
About his ideal match
They should be generous with their attention and interest. They should be willing to take an interest in my topics of interest and share theirs with me. Common interests and compatible flaws would be nice.
Let's do fun stuff together?
I am not a fitness fanatic, but I do love to engage in a healthy amount of kayaking, snorkelling, swimming, Kung Fu, hiking, abseiling, ten-pin bowling, golf, mini golf, casual volleyball, kicking a ball around, hackey sack and skateboarding. but mostly I do one of these a few times yearly, I would like to do more.
I call myself an unabashed movie buff. I believe that you can tell a lot about a person from the kind of movies they like. If you wish to learn more about me, you should watch the following movies:
A History of Violence, Sunshine (1999), Star Wars Uncut: Director's Cut, It's Such A Beautiful Day, From Bedrooms to Billions, Upstream Color, Mulholland Dr, Oldboy (2003), The Five Obstructions, And Everything is Going Fine, Demonlover (2002), Indie Game: The Movie, The King of Kong, Spider (2002), eXistenZ, Enter the Battlefield, GameLoading: Rise of the Indies, Hard Candy, Gun Shy (2000), Kenny, The Dwarvenaut, Galaxy Quest and The Boondock Saints.
I have carefully curated and honed this list of movies over the years and in my humble opinion, these are some of the most significant and genre-shaping films of the past 20 years.
I love dumplings, cheese, hot chips and white bread. I love ice-cream, and my least favourite flavour is vanilla.
I consider myself to be a bit of a foodie. I think I am a pretty decent cook. Some of my favourite dishes include Cauliflower Cheese Fettuccine, Spaghetti Bolognese, Pizza Dough, Shepherd's Pie with chopped potatoes or pom-poms (instead of mashed potatoes), Purple Baby Turnip Surprise with Steak, Risotto, mac and cheese. I should mention that I make the cheese sauce from scratch.
I am a big fan of desserts, and I make a scrumptious Banana Butterscotch Pudding, using a recipe by Gordon Ramsay.
